Invisible Threads by Lucy Beresford →
The Lodger by Louisa Treger
Review Date: 17 July 2015
Author: Louisa Treger
Release Date: 5 May 2015
Publishers: Thomas Dunne Books
Available in Hardback, Paperback, and Kindle.
Authors Website: http://louisatreger.com/
A fabulous historical Debut novel. Each page is a Masterclass in writing
Louisa Treger's debut novel set in the 20th Century is a cross over between an historical account and fiction, centres around one of the lesser known writers of this time Dorothy Richardson and her rise from dentist secretary to literary pioneer.
This is a well-researched and superbly written book. The complex life of Dorothy Richardson centres on her affair with H.G. Wells who is married to one of Dorothy's old school friends. Bertie as Wells is known as takes centre stage through much of The Lodger. But there is another story here that the reader comes to terms with and that is the sexual awakening of Dorothy at a time when women where fighting just to vote. Now we Dorothy strike up a friendship with Veronica, and we find out that Veronica is no ordinary woman, the two strike up a close friendship that includes deep trust in each other and secrets of their adulterous affairs are shared. After a time this transcends into a complex relationship that becomes physical despite Dorothy still seeing 'Bertie' now things become more complex and disturbing for Dorothy as she now finds herself pregnant.
During this stage of the 20th Century the fact that here we see Dorothy involved in an affair with a married man, now pregnant with his child and also an affair with another Woman, this would almost certainly mean Dorothy becoming an outcast in society, disgrace and complete ruin. Just to make matters worse Veronica is incarcerated for protesting as a suffragette protester. Dorothy is riddled with guilt over her affair with Bertie and betraying her best friend add this to the remorse as her mother's suicide and her feelings that she could have prevented this.
Locked in her attic bedsit every evening Dorothy emptied her thoughts and poured her heart out filling notebooks and so in time came the multi-volume 'Pilgrimage' which was based around the character Miriam Henderson and this is based on the authors own life between 1891 and 1915.
The one aspect of The Lodger that really appealed to me was the way that Treger does not in any way get to point the finger of blame to anyone that the reader can see, this is something each reader will come to have their own thoughts and to make up their own mind.
The style and prose of The Lodger is impressive, bordering on poetic each page moves easily to the next and keeps the reader engaged in the story. Beautifully written and poetically told. How Treger follows The Lodger is something that I will be watching very keenly.
Born in London, Louisa Treger began her career as a classical violinist. She studied at the Royal College of Music and the Guildhall School of Music, and worked as a freelance orchestral player and teacher.
Louisa subsequently turned to literature, gaining a First Class degree and a PhD in English at University College London, where she focused on early twentieth century women's writing.
Married with three children, she lives in London. The Lodger is Louisa's first novel.

Apple's new Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro will work with older tablets
Chris Davies - Mar 18, 2020, 8:28am CDT
Apple's new Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro isn't just for the updated 2020 tablet, the company has confirmed, with news about backward compatibility shared today. Announced alongside the latest iPad Pro, the Magic Keyboard promises to address some of the lingering complaints tablet users have had about Apple's keyboard covers, including bringing trackpad support for the first time.
The trackpad joins a Magic Keyboard using technology borrowed from the latest 16-inch MacBook Pro and the new MacBook Air. That has proper keys, backlit, and with 1mm travel. It also uses a new cantilevered hinge mechanism, which can be adjusted across 120-degrees; it's stiff enough to support the iPad Pro off your desk or table, in fact.
Meanwhile, there's now a pass-through USB-C port for powering the tablet, which means the iPad Pro's own USB-C connector can be saved for peripherals such as removable storage.
Apple is, unsurprisingly, positioning the new accessory as the perfect peripheral for the 2020 version of the iPad Pro. However, you won't need to upgrade in order to use it. Those with an existing iPad Pro will also find it's compatible.
The 12.9-inch Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro will work with the 2018 iPad Pro; that is to say, the 3rd generation, as well as the new 4th generation. The 11-inch Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro will work with the 1st and 2nd generation tablets. As you'd expect, they each fold around the tablets to protect them in your bag, too.
The 11-inch model will be priced at $299, while the 12.9-inch model will be $349. Both will go on sale in May, which means you have a couple of months to wait. The delayed gratification is down to trackpad support requiring iPadOS 13.4, which Apple isn't expecting to release until March 24.
At that point, you won't actually need to have a Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro – or indeed an iPad Pro itself – in order to get trackpad or mouse functionality. iPadOS 13.4 adds support both for Apple's own wireless peripherals, the Magic Mouse 2 and Magic Trackpad 2, or a third-party USB and Bluetooth mouse or trackpad. It'll work with all of Apple's iPad Pro models, the iPad Air 2 and later, the iPad 5th generation and later, and the iPad mini 4 and later.
If pricing for the official Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro is too rich for your blood, meanwhile, we'd be surprised if third-party accessory makers didn't jump on the bandwagon too. We're expecting to see more affordable options from the usual suspects, so there's likely to be a much wider array of peripheral choice later in 2020.
[Updated to correct iPadOS 13.4 release timeline]

Arguably the best ethnic dining experience in Rome. Exceptionally delicate, authentic Vietnamese food at not cheap but reasonable prices centrally located by the Tiber near Piazza Farnese. Try the ravioli (dumplings), fresh spring roulades, and meat and chicken in satay sauce. In the winter, go for phò, a soup based on meat, fish and vegetables. You can make a meal in two from half-a-dozen appetizers alone. Beef in citronelle sauce and all curries are top notch. The manner of the place is stylish and sophisticated, giving it a Parisian-Vietnamese flavor. Family owners settled in Rome from Hue in 1975, as Vietnam descended into postwar chaos. If you don't speak Italian, French will help. About 40 covers, so be sure to book in advance for a large party. Dining only, with reservations taken beginning at 6 p.m.

A Bronx Kid Takes Aim At The Babe's Record
Posted Sunday, April 1, 2018 8:00 am
Ron Kaplan, Award-Winning Journalist, Baseball Author and Member Of SABR.
At the start of the baseball season 80 years ago, few people imagined that Detroit Tigers' Hank Greenberg would come close to matching the most hallowed sports record at the time, the 60 home runs Babe Ruth hit in 1927.
Birdie Tebbets, one of those baseball lifers, was on the Tigers at the time and said that aside from Jackie Robinson, no one in the game had it tougher than Greenberg, a kid from the Bronx born to Jewish immigrants.
The first baseman who ended up playing in the midwest endured anti-Semitic jibes from opposing players and fans throughout his career, but he had also earned a modicum of respect from his detractors when he put principles ahead of personal gain. In 1934, he famously sat out a crucial game because it fell on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
The Tigers were having a bad season in 1938 after years of champion-caliber play. By the time the All-Star break rolled around, Greenberg was the only real story, quietly accumulating home runs until someone noticed he might actually have a chance to best Ruth's "unapproachable" total.
While all this was going on, the twilight hours were descending over Europe as talk of war started to make headlines. Greenberg's parents had emigrated to the U.S. from Romania in the early 1900s, but they still had family in "the old country" and anxiety was no doubt running high.
Still, the Detroit slugger went about his business, sending baseballs into the stands and serving as a role model for Jewish kids. As the round-trippers piled up, beat writers and columnists began to take note and stories about the big strapping kid from New York moved from the sports section to the front page.
The Jewish media, which rarely reported on doings in the sports world, began to take note as well, offering primers on the game for the uninitiated. Like Jesse Owens in the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Greenberg served to counter Germany's claims of the inferiority of the non-Aryan.
When he hit upon a brief slump in August, the pundits wondered if the pressure was getting to him. Had they asked, he might have told them that hitting a baseball was nothing compared with what millions of others were going through. But they didn't ask. In those days, athletes were expected to do their jobs and keep their mouths shut. Opining on political issues was beyond their pay grade.
Greenberg's offense began to pick up again as the season wound down. He had 58 home runs when the Tigers faced the Cleveland Indians for their final series. A rainout necessitated a doubleheader on the last day of the season.
Greenberg went homerless against Indians' wunderkind Bob Feller in the first game. In the nightcap, time just ran out. The home plate umpire apologized when he called the game after seven innings because of the encroaching darkness. Night baseball was not yet commonplace.
"Sorry, Hank," he said, "but this is as far as I can go."
"That's all right," replied the weary strong man, "This is as far as I can go, too."
There are those who believe to this day that pitchers didn't give him anything good to hit, not wanting a Jew to break Ruth's revered mark, but Greenberg – ever the mensch -- denied those claims, saying that he simply ran out of gas.

Biografia

Formazione e vita privata
Figlio del commissario Luigi Calabresi, assassinato nel 1972 (quando Mario aveva solo due anni e tre mesi, suo fratello Paolo solo uno e sua madre, Gemma Capra, era incinta al terzo mese del terzo figlio, chiamato Luigi), s'iscrive al corso di laurea in giurisprudenza e poi a quello in storia presso l'Università Statale di Milano, senza tuttavia mai laurearsi. In seguito frequenta l'Istituto "Carlo De Martino" per la formazione al giornalismo. Ha avuto due figlie gemelle con Caterina Ginzburg, nipote di Natalia Ginzburg, dalla quale è separato dal 2020.

Esordi giornalistici
Dal 1997 è giornalista professionista. Nel 1998 è all'ANSA come cronista parlamentare, nel 1999 passa a la Repubblica, nella redazione politica. Successivamente è alla redazione romana de La Stampa, per la quale, da inviato speciale, racconta gli attentati dell'11 settembre 2001. Nel 2002 torna a la Repubblica, come caporedattore centrale vicario, e dal 2007 è corrispondente per il giornale da New York, da dove racconta le elezioni presidenziali statunitensi del 2008. Nel 2007 pubblica Spingendo la notte più in là, libro dedicato alle vittime del terrorismo (dal quale è stato tratto uno spettacolo teatrale interpretato da Luca Zingaretti).

Direttore di quotidiani nazionali

Il 22 aprile 2009, a 39 anni, è nominato direttore de La Stampa in sostituzione di Giulio Anselmi. Dal 6 giugno 2011 ha condotto in prima serata su Rai 3 Hotel Patria. Il 31 dicembre 2015 lascia la direzione de La Stampa per sostituire Ezio Mauro alla direzione de la Repubblica dal 15 gennaio 2016. Il 5 febbraio 2019 l'editore comunica a Calabresi che sarà rimosso dalla carica di direttore, nominando al suo posto Carlo Verdelli a far data dal 19 febbraio 2019.

Altre attività
Dal 21 febbraio 2020 cura una nuova iniziativa editoriale, scrivendo dei reportage che si possono leggere iscrivendosi al suo sito web.

A fine 2020 è direttore e co-fondatore con Mario Gianani, Guido Maria Brera e Roberto Zanco di Chora, società di produzione di podcast.

Premi e riconoscimenti
 Nel 2002 insieme a Francesca Senette e Andrea Galdi è stato insignito del premio Ischia di giornalismo in ricordo di Angelo Rizzoli, riservato ai giornalisti under 35 e nel 2003 di quello intitolato a Carlo Casalegno.
 Nel 2007 con il libro Spingendo la notte più in là vince il premio Fiesole.
 Nel 2016 gli è stato assegnato il Premio speciale della Giuria, durante l'ottava edizione del Premio Giornalistico Amerigo.
 Nel 2017 gli è stato attribuito alla Camera dei deputati il premio America della Fondazione Italia USA.

Controversie
Il 2 aprile 2018, a fronte di un articolo di Piergiorgio Odifreddi dal titolo Le "fake news" di Scalfari su papa Francesco nell'ambito della rubrica Il non-senso della vita, Calabresi decide la sospensione di suddetta rubrica dopo diciotto anni di collaborazione.

"The upgrade to the circuit boards was a pleasant surprise, thank you for some excellent service.
I have had my 10.7kw battery up and running properly now for 2 years , there were a few teething problems with it in the first 2 months but that sort of thing is to be expected when you are only the 2nd battery installed in your town.
My experience with my battery has been better than expected I was quite sure I would need double the capacity , but I was happy to be proved wrong 10.7kw is more than sufficient for 2 people .
Battery performance is very good in winter with up to 50% capacity still in the battery by the dawn, and we are totally independent of the power grid . During summer its a different matter due to cloud cover of the heat ,tropical monsoon and cyclonic activity the battery is usually depleted by 3am but still having the power grid available makes up for that , Far North Qld has some of the highest power prices in Australia , before we got the battery our power bill was regularly over $1200 for 3 months , since we got the battery it is now on average $130 for 3 months and I might add that $100 of that is the cost of reading the meter ! If I didn't have solar with a battery the cost to read the meter would be $50 . Apart from the savings we were the only house in the street to have electricity for the few hours it took to restore power the areas north of MacKay after cyclone Debbie last year .
Yes I defiantly would recommend this system to all my family and friends , only one criticism i have never received any feed back from emails I had sent in regards to upgrading my system to include a wind turbine and generator?
I am sure if these 2 things can be fitted to the existing unit it would make it the premier unit and the unit of choice.
If you want to ring me for feed back i am more than happy to answer any questions you have.

Ed Sheeran unhappy with campaigners for using 'Small Bump' for anti-abortion promotion in Ireland

Popular singer Ed Sheeran has expressed his displeasure towards Irish anti-abortion campaigners for using one his songs- Small Bump- without his consent.
The campaigners are allegedly using the song to promote their cause.
The 27-year-old singer-songwriter said the song was used by the group without seeking his approval and its lyrics do not reflect the ideology espoused by the group.
"I've been informed that my song 'Small Bump' is being used to promote the Pro-Life campaign, and I feel it's important to let you know I have not given approval for this use, and it does not reflect what the song is about," Sheeran wrote in his Instagram story.
The lyrics of the song from his 2011 album '+' are: "You're just a small bump unborn / In four months you're brought to life.
"You might be left with my hair /But you'll have your mother's eyes / I'll hold your body in my hands, be as gentle as I can / But for now you're a scan of my unmade plans."
On May 25, Ireland will vote in a referendum to repeal its Constitution's eighth amendment and legalise abortion up to 12 weeks.
The current law prohibits a woman to end an unwanted pregnancy in virtually all circumstances.
The campaign to liberalise abortion laws got more impetus in 2012 when an Indian woman Savita Halappanavar died in a Galway hospital after she was refused an abortion during a miscarriage. Her husband, Praveen Halappanavar, stated she repeatedly asked for a termination but was refused because there was a foetal heartbeat, reported a news portal.

Un pointeur laser est un outil utilisé par les conférenciers pour désigner des objets sur un tableau ou un écran.  C'est la version moderne de la baguette d'autrefois.  À base d'une diode laser de couleur rouge, il prend généralement la forme d'un stylo ou d'un porte-clef.  Muni d'un bouton poussoir, il est alimenté grâce à des piles.
Il existe une version « haute technologie », pour conférenciers, du célèbre couteau suisse. Il est équipé d'un stylo, d'un éclairage à LED, d'un pointeur laser et d'une clé USB. De plus, ils peuvent être équipés d'un récepteur USB, ce qui permet de faire passer les diapositives d'un diaporama grâce au pointeur laser.

Classes

La Commission électrotechnique internationale (CEI) a classé les pointeurs laser en cinq catégories :
 Classe 1 : la puissance de sortie ne peut pas entraîner de lésions oculaires.
 Classe 2 : la puissance de sortie est inférieure à . En cas d'exposition, le réflexe naturel de cligner des yeux et de détourner la tête suffit à protéger du risque de lésion.
 Classe 3A : la puissance de sortie est inférieure à , ce qui limite la puissance atteignant la rétine à  lorsque la pupille est dilatée au maximum (ouverture estimée à ). .
 Classe 3B : la puissance de sortie est inférieure à , suffisante pour provoquer des lésions oculaires qui sont décrites à partir d'une puissance de .
 Classe 4 : la puissance de sortie est supérieure à . Ces lasers peuvent causer des lésions oculaires et cutanées et même provoquer l'inflammation des objets sur lesquels ils sont dirigés.

En France, la fabrication, l'importation et la vente d'appareils à laser de classe supérieure à 2 est strictement limitée.

Usage en astronomie

Les astronomes amateurs se servent de pointeurs laser de couleur verte () pour désigner des objets célestes lors de séances d'initiation.  La diffusion de la lumière dans l'atmosphère terrestre rend le rayon clairement visible par l'assistance et permet de désigner les objets avec une grande précision.  Ces pointeurs sont équipés de lasers de  () ou de  ().

Nisal Tharinda scored the only goal of the match in the second half to hand the defending champions a narrow 1-0 victory over Hameed Al Husseinie College in the third place play-off of the U19 Division I Championship held at the Moragasmulla grounds.
Both the group winners crashed to shock defeats in the semi-finals and hence met for a replay of last year's final in the third place play-off.
Undefeated in the group stages, Maris Stella College lost to a physically dominating Holy Cross outfit 2-1. An off day at office from the Maris Stella midfield meant the champions couldn't get into the finals for the second year in a row.
A late surge from Maris Stella in the dying minutes was not enough as Holy Cross managed to hold off defending champions to win 2-1 in the U19 Division I semifinal clash.
Meanwhile, Hameed Al Husseinie College played some of the most competitive football in recent history against a rejuvenated St. Joseph's. The missed chances brought the match into penalties and the demons from last time's penalty shootout loss to St. Patrick's College came back to haunt the Hameedians as they lost again.
In today's matchup, Hameed Al Husseinie College didn't take much time to settle as they passed the ball freely and fluently. But despite all the time on the ball, they couldn't create a decent chance in the early exchange.
Maris Stella on the other hand created a couple of opportunities. The first one came through a corner kick but Anjana Gunawardhana's cross wasn't utilized properly by Thathsara Fernando who directed a free header straight into the hands of goalkeeper.
St. Joseph's College beat Hameed Al Husseinie College in the second semifinal encounter of the U19 Division I Football.
Nisal Tharinda, the star flanker, ran all the way form half line into opposition's half but did not send in a cross and his effort from an acute angle missed the target.
Unfazed by the happenings on the other end, Hameed Al Husseinie College continued their ball passing game and slowly started to create a few headaches in the Maris Stella defense. Mohamad Sajid from Maris Stella defended resolutely to keep all the chances away.
Mohamed Rishan had two chances to break the deadlock but his shots lacked precision on both occasions. Hameed Al Husseinie College was caught offside on 8 occasions as they struggled to time their runs with Mohamad Shahlan being the main culprit.
Hameed Al Husseinie got off to a flier in the second half, winning two corners in the first two minutes. The push for the early goal went unrewarded courtesy of poor finishing.
Maris Stella punished Hameed AL Husseinie when the chance arrived. Nisal Tharinda drilled the ball past the Hameedian custodian, capitalizing on a failure to clear as he put Maris Stella 1-0 up in the 45th minute.
Nisal had the opportunity to put the match to bed when he broke free to go one on one with the goalkeeper by Maris Stella skipper Anjana Gunawardhana, however he tried to be too cute on that occasion by opting to pass it to his fellow striker Luke despite being in an easier position to score but the defender cleared the danger away.
The hot weather conditions meant that the players found it hard to give their fullest and started to wear down in the dying minutes of the game. Maris Stella put their numbers back in defense to hold on to the slender lead.
The 70th minute saw Mohamad Rishan going on a mazy run from the left flank but he was left with no support. He had no option but to go it on his own and he brilliantly tricked the rushing defenders but was too close to dink the ball past the goalkeeper.
With time running out, Maris Stella grew strong in confidence and Hameed Al Husseinie College looked lost in the middle of the pitch.
The referee blew the final whistle to mark the end of the match as the defending champions did just enough to grab the victory.
It was a competitive match between two good teams and it was a moment of brilliance that handed Maris Stella the advantage. They made sure they didn't let the advantage go to waste.

In Search of a Common Cause
In a bitter and divided era, national service can help us regain our lost consensus
By Joe Klein Monday, June 18, 2012
Andrew Hinderaker for TIME
Veteran Larry Nosker (right) speaks with Joe Klein on his annual road trip at Richard's Coffee Shop and Military Museum in Mooresville, N.C., on Friday, June 1, 2012. Joe met with Larry and several other veterans.
Richard's coffee shop and military museum in Mooresville, N.C., is a down-home place where veterans from all our modern wars gather most days to talk and feel comfortable in ways they only can among their fellow warriors. At the very beginning of my third annual U.S. road trip, on June 1, I had coffee with a bunch of them, assembled by Iraq veterans John Gallina and Dale Beatty, the founders of Purple Heart Homes, which builds houses for disabled veterans. That conversation set the tone for much of what has followed on my journey in ways that I couldn't have anticipated.
Most of those who spoke with me were Vietnam veterans, and they were not thrilled with the way the country was going. When I asked them how they'd rate Barack Obama as Commander in Chief, they started to laugh, which I thought was unfair and disrespectful. But it turned out they didn't have much use for Mitt Romney either. When I asked them who the last President they liked was, it was unanimous: George H.W. Bush. "He's the last one who really served," said Larry Nosker, a retired truck driver and Air Force veteran. "Air National Guard reserve don't count."
It turned out that these vets, like many I've met, simply didn't trust anyone who hadn't been through boot camp--and so their pool of acceptable leaders was diminishing dramatically and their sense of alienation was increasing just as fast. Practically everyone--women simply didn't make it onto their radar screen--had served in World War II. A lot of people had served in Vietnam. Fewer than 1% had served in Iraq and Afghanistan--and while they believed the new veterans might include some potential leaders, there still weren't nearly enough grownups to run a country. I asked if there was anything we as a nation could do about that. "Bring back the draft!" said Ray Pennipede, a former New York City police officer and member of the 1st Air Cavalry in Vietnam, without hesitation. There was applause. "There isn't an 18-year-old boy who doesn't need to get his butt kicked," added Nosker, "by someone in a position of complete authority."
This theme kept coming up in meeting after meeting during my first five days on the road, though usually in less vivid fashion. I traveled through North Carolina and Virginia, both in areas of deep blue and crimson red, and it was clear neither side trusted the other very much. For the conservatives, the country had changed beyond their imagining; not just civil rights but gay rights (a contentious referendum recently banned gay marriage in North Carolina), and new ethnic groups that seemed foreign--the South Asians who all of a sudden seemed to run half the convenience stores, the Latinos who didn't seem to want to speak English. Why, even the President of the United States was something strange, neither black nor white. For liberals, it was all about intolerance. You couldn't have a half-decent conversation with these Tea Party people, they said. "My mouth is bloody," a woman from Smith Mountain Lake, Va., told me, "from biting my tongue all the time."

Q: fastest way to subsitute on 10GB file for multiple expressions I have a file of 10GB data, I want to execute 2048 substitution expressions of sed -i 's/pattern/replace_pattern/g' on that file.
Is there a way to do it faster and effectively.
Currently, I am launching sed or perl  in sequential order.
sed -i  "s/VSS:F31128015/VSS_F31128015/g" file.data
sed -i  "s/VSS:F31127969/VSS_F31127969/g" file.data
 OR
perl -pi -e  's/VSS\:F31128015/VSS_F31128015/g' file.data
perl -pi -e  's/VSS\:F31127969/VSS_F31127969/g' file.data

I did notice very less difference in speed of execution by perl or sed
Is there a better way to do this? I have almost 2048 expressions of replacement.
will opening 10GB file via Tcl/tk and using regexp be a better idea?
Should I use lex?

A: Some things that should work (untested)
Use a more general regex
sed -i -e 's/(VSS):(F[0-9]+)/\1_\2/g' file.data

Use more than one expression, but one sed invocation.
sed -i -e "s/VSS:F31128015/VSS_F31128015/g" -e "s/VSS:F31127969/VSS_F31127969/g" file.data

A: perl is good for simple text replacements like this. Following up on your comment thread on ctrl-alt-delor's answer, there are ways to avoid greediness. In this case, are you wanting to match exactly 8 digits? If yes,
perl -i.bak -pe 's/(?<=VSS):(?=F\d{8})/_/' bigfile

This uses lookarounds to find the colon you want to change to underscore.
People often add the g flag even when there's only 1 match per line. Add it if necessary.

Legendee Gold was created a few years ago in the style of the classic Legendee, but with a new approach to balance and taste. The new coffee exhibits an incredible natural sweetness - many customers who sweeten their coffee like this one unsweetened.
The Legendee family is one of the world's most famous branded coffees. Legendee is sometimes referred to as "weasel" coffee in Vietnam because it is seen as the world's most successful attempt to produce a coffee with the balance and flavor of the famous 'Cafe Chôn' or Civet/Weasel coffee. It is a unique enzyme-treated coffee that releases flavours bound in the beans and not released under ordinary processing.


Advance Ash Fusion Tester is used for checking the Fusion Temperature of Coal and Coke Ash. The behaviour of the coal's ash residue at high temperature is a critical factor in selecting coal for boilers and furnaces. The design of most furnaces and boilers takes in to account the characteristics of the ash generated and whether it will remain in solid form or be fluid to some degree. The Ash Fusion Temperature used to analyze coal ash is suitable for the furnace in which it or will become fluid at some temperature.
This test performs the actual Melting / Fusion of the Ash Cone under controlled conditions and checks the corresponding Deformation Temperature of the sample Coal Ash. The instrument complies with the ASTM standard to check the temperatures of four separate transitional states of the Ash Cone between dry and fluid conditions that will occur because of the heating. The Auto Image Recognition feature in the higher versions enables Auto detection of the various deformation temperatures.
The instrument features an automatic temperature recording along with images of the Ash Cone using a high Resolution CCD camera. The camera collects and records the images of the Ash Cone as it deforms with increase in furnace temperature. A maximum of 3/5 tests can be carried out in one experiment. A rugged High Temperature Heater used with high grade thermal insulating blocks ensure a long life of the heater element even after continuous and repeated use at temperatures up-to 1520/1620 °C.
A highly sensitive and accurate controlling card controls the operation of the instrument and has advanced features like cold-junction compensation, temperature overshoot protection etc.
The graph can be saved for future analysis.
The results of ash graph can be printed out and the temperature rising curve can be displayed on the screen.
A PCI Card fitted inside the instrument ensures seamless integration of the system with the computer.
The software is designed to completely support Windows system.


In her first public interview since the 2016 presidential election, Hillary Clinton revealed she'll be writing a book on the election, and more specifically, the role misogyny played in her loss.
"The aftermath of the election was so devastating", Clinton said Thursday during the Women in the World Summit hosted by Tina Brown at New York's Lincoln Center.
Clinton said Congress should put aside party differences, set up an independent, nonpartisan commission to investigate, and take action to stop such Russian meddling. It is fair to say that certainly misogyny played a roll.
Clinton said the 65 per cent approval rating she had enjoyed as Barack Obama's secretary of state - "a job I was asked to do by a man" - tanked when she announced her intention to run for president.
And while a lot of the people who agreed with Trump the candidate are confused and concerned by the attack, Democrat hawks are thrilled, this being a war they'd wanted for a long time.
- Comey: Just two weeks before the Election Day, FBI Director James Comey released a letter on October 28 saying that he is waiting for additional emails related to the FBI probe of the former secretary of state's use of a private server. John McCain (R), who she says has "never been so anxious about this country in his lifetime".
"I hope this administration will move forward in a way that is both strategic and consistent with our values", Clinton said in a speech at the Annie's List luncheon, as Time reported.
She also admitted that it was "somewhat gratifying" to watch as a Republican plan to repeal and replace Obamacare failed even before it came to a vote.
While the vastly experienced Clinton won the popular vote, she lost the electoral college to the businessman who had never previously held public office, upending the world and the USA political establishment.
"I don't take any pleasure in seeing the kind of chaotic functioning", she said. "[Assad] is there and I guess he's running things, so something should happen". "I think it's zero chance that he would have done this deliberately", former Texas congressman Ron Paul said on Wednesday.

Home health COVID-19: First batch of 9,600 rapid test kits arrive in Kashmir valley
COVID-19: First batch of 9,600 rapid test kits arrive in Kashmir valley
JK News Live April 19, 2020 health,
The process will be hastened as these kits provide the results in about half-an-hour only, the director added.
Kashmir has received the first batch of 9,600 rapid test kits as the valley is trying to ramp up testing in its fight to contain the spread of COVID-19, officials said on Sunday.
The rapid test kits help examine whether a person has developed antibodies in their blood stream to fight the novel coronavirus, which indicates whether a person has been exposed to or has COVID-19.
The results of these tests take around 30 minutes. Doctors and healthcare workers can then determine the number of people who could be infected in a population sample.
The kits would be used in the 83 red zones in the valley on a priority basis to help the administration expand the testing in these designated areas, the officials said.
We have received the first batch of 9,600 rapid testing kits, Director, Health Services, Kashmir, Dr Samir Mattoo told PTI.


The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said despite the refusal of President Muhammadu Buhari to assent to the Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill 2018, which makes the use of card reader mandatory, the 2019 elections will not be conducted with incident form.
The INEC assurance is coming as the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Organisation has said the use of incident form in the impending general elections would be unacceptable to it.
The electoral body, however, said the rejected bill would have addressed the controversies that trailed the 2015 exercise especially the place of technology and others that the amendments seek to address.
Responding to enquiry yesterday, INEC's Director of Voter Education and Publicity, Mr. Oluwole Osaze-Uzzi, said the presidential veto has created no lacuna in the electoral legal regime, explaining that the Electoral Act 2010 as amended in 2015 would be the operative law.
Reacting to a report by an online newspaper that 13.5 million voters voted for Buhari without full biometric accreditation in 2015, Osaze-Uzzi said, "How was this determined? Biometric accreditation does not determine who a person votes for. Put another way, the card reader is used for biometric accreditation. It doesn't determine how such persons vote.
The president also listed four provisions of the bill that required drafting amendments by the National Assembly. They include Section five of the bill amending section 18 of the principal act, which should indicate the subsection to which the substitution of the figure "30" for the figure "60" is to be effected and Section 11 of the bill amending Section 36 should indicate the subsection in which the proviso is to be introduced.
But the PDP presidential campaign said the use of incident form would not be acceptable to it in 2019.
One of the spokespersons, Mr. Segun Sowunmi, said that outpouring of goodwill by Nigerians since the PDP started its zonal presidential campaigns was an indication that the All Progressives Congress (APC) could not win the election in a free and fair contest.
He stated, "I want to tell INEC that it is a major unacceptable embarrassment that the business of incident forms will now take precedence over the card reader.
Sowunmi insisted that the 2019 elections should be a celebration of the development of the country's democratic journey, which he said could only be achieved if INEC conducts free, fair, credible and transparent elections in 2019.
An online newspaper at the weekend reported that at least 13.5 million Nigerians voted manually, without biometric accreditation, in the 2015 presidential election, according to data from INEC, part of the problems the amendment bill seeks to address.
The data, obtained by DeepDive Intelligence, shows that Buhari, candidate of the APC, won in nine of the 10 most-affected states, notwithstanding that the non-use of PVCs during the poll cut across all the political parties' strongholds.
The 2015 presidential election had two major contenders, Buhari and Goodluck Jonathan, Nigeria's first incumbent president to lose a re-election bid.
Of the 31,746,490 accredited voters in the election, 13,536,311, representing 42.6 per cent of voters, voted without biometric accreditation.
Out of this number, 10,184,720 votes are from states won by Buhari and 3,351,591 votes came from states won by Jonathan, the PDP candidate, representing 75 per cent and 25 per cent of accredited voters respectively. – Thisday.

What is Pro-Growth?
Pro-Growth describes our grassroots movement to support the 1,500 female advisors we have at MassMutual while creating a more inclusive environment that attracts new advisors and leaders.
These statistics from GAMA International* show why it's time to move the needle:
By 2020, two-thirds of consumer wealth in the U.S. will be controlled by women.
Women control 50 percent of all private wealth.
The number of women-owned businesses is growing at 1.5 times the national average.
87 percent of women want to work with a financial advisor, yet only 17 percent do.
Research also shows that women tend to excel at many of the skills this industry requires, such as building networks, fact-finding, listening, and showing empathy.**
This place is real. It's our firm, right now. Our experience in helping women expand their practices has taught us a thing or two regarding what it takes to help elevate a business. For some it's marketing support, for others it's strategic business planning, advanced sales techniques, and having subject matter expertise at your fingertips. For just about everyone, it's freedom and access to superior products, cutting edge technology, and marketplace differentiators like business planning tools and other specialty offerings.
It's time to shelve the "it can't be done" mentality. We strive to integrate innovation, collaboration and inclusion at levels. And we can't wait to see the impact you will make with our support. On your terms.
When we say we are committed to creating an environment where women business owners can thrive, we mean it.
In other companies and at other times, commitments such this would have been made at the corporate level and played out from the 'top down.' We are so serious about our commitment that we have engaged at a 'grass roots level' to determine how we can create a better place for women to realize their vision for their business. In true entrepreneurial spirit, we have reached out to the field to partner together in this endeavor.
Women's advisory boards: We have created committees consisting of women in the field to learn what works for women business owners, and where we have opportunities to grow. These boards allow us to
honor several important values for us, including having a voice, and making a difference. It also honors our value of innovation, the capacity to look beyond "the way it has been," to "imagining what could be possible."
Connecting women advisors with their peers provides opportunities for mentorship and also builds community and strength. It allows for shared experience and shared growth.
Success attracts success. We know that the more we cultivate and nurture women business owners and their practices, the more women will want to come to join us.
Inclusive culture. The idea of creating an inclusive culture has challenged us to examine mindsets and behaviors, and to embrace change where necessary. Local leaders are addressing management blind spots and addressing misconceptions about what women want and need. We are committed to expanding support for women and their practices at the local level by providing access to female role models and creating other supportive structures.
Teaming. We believe that teams that demonstrate gender, tenure and generational diversity speak to our strengths, and provide fertile ground for women to thrive in our organization. Teaming is by its very nature collaborative.

A Detroit heroin dealer who sold drugs near Inskip Elementary in Knoxville has been sentenced to 17 years in prison, District Attorney General Charme Allen's office said.
Sparkle Trenetta Jones, 36, was convicted of Sale and Delivery of Schedule I Heroin in a Drug Free School Zone.
Fifteen years of her sentence will be served without the possibility of parole.
In a two-day trial in September, Assistant District Attorneys Hector Sanchez and Ashley
McDermott explained to the jury that on June 28, 2017, Knoxville Police Department
Investigator Phil Jinks used a confidential informant to arrange a purchase of heroin from Jones.
Jones had called the informant earlier in the day to tell the informant that she had
heroin for sale, the DA's office said.
SPARKLE TRENETTA JONES: Jail calls lead to conviction of Detroit heroin dealer in Knoxville
Jinks had the informant place a recorded phone call to Jones ordering half a gram of heroin for $80. Jones directed the informant to meet at the Inskip Market, which is next to Inskip Elementary School.
While at the market, a co-defendant arrived and sold the heroin to the informant, the DA's Office said. Jinks was able to identify Jones' voice by reviewing jail calls between Jones and her husband, Marquail Patterson, who is serving thirty years in prison for a murder that occurred in 2014 at a nightclub on Cumberland Avenue.
"We will continue to aggressively prosecute the out-of-state dealers who bring poison
into our community in order to profit from addiction," said DA Charme Allen.

Inclusivity Win: The 'Where's Waldo?' Books Are Being Reprinted With A Faint Odor Emanating From Waldo So The Blind Can Find Him
While society has a long way to go before it's truly inclusive for kids of every stripe, progress is being made every day. The latest major win for inclusivity comes with a classic book series getting a much-needed upgrade for the 21st century: The Where's Waldo? books are being reprinted with a faint odor added to Waldo so the blind can finally find him!
"We wanted to do something that made sure that blind children can enjoy the Where's Waldo? books just as much as every sighted child," said a spokeswoman for book publisher Little, Brown and Company. "It's so exciting to introduce Waldo to a whole new segment of fans."
But don't think that it's going to be any easier for the blind kids. Every effort has been made to make finding Waldo just as tough for them as it is for the sighted. The clay-like scent emanating from Waldo is very faint, so blind children will have to sniff around the pages just as long as sighted kids have to look before finding Waldo. And even better, the characters who closely resemble Waldo all have an extremely similar scent added to them to throw the blind off his trail.
Wow! What an incredible victory for inclusivity! What do you think? Are you going to pick up a new Where's Waldo? book for a blind child in your life? Tweet or Facebook us and let us know!

German chancellor Angela Merkel was out today saying "Europe needs a strong Germany, it is desirable to get a government in place quickly" . Germany still has not formed a government since she won the election but short of a majority.
Merkel had governed as part of coaltion in previous governments but has been unsuccessful in forming one this time.
German president Steinmeier has called for talks between the CDU/CSU/SPD leaders next week as this election saga drags on. Merkel has also said she is prepared to govern as a minority government. The currency markets have factored in the German status quo to remain with the Euro US dollar $EURUSD exchange rate closing the week over 1.1900. The Dax also remains unphased but how much of that is the result of the world wide splurge on stocks with the S&P 500 closing over 2600 for the first time Friday.
Centre-left party the Social Democrats (SPD) reversed an earlier decision that it was out of coaltion talks and said they would talk to Merkel's conservative Christian Democrats (CDU). Merkel has taken the break down of talks as disrepectful and said ny talks should be based on mutual respect.

Little Richard Statue Will be Placed Outside his Childhood Home
"The Architect of Rock and Roll," Little Richard, will be commemorated with a new statue outside his childhood home in Macon, Georgia. Richard Wayne Penniman passed away earlier this month after a private battle with bone cancer. Friends of the Little Richard House and the Community Foundation of Central Georgia have initiated a fund to pay for the statue along with a replica of the musician's Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Representative James Beverly said the fund will also be used to support organizations that provide music education to low to moderate-income students across Bibb County and Middle Georgia. Organizers are planning to have the statue erected by December 5, on what would have been Little Richard's 88th birthday.
"Little Richard's contribution to music as a whole, to all the genres of music, was monumental and very instrumental in a lot of people's careers," Antonio Williams, a Friends of the Little Richard House board member stated. In 2017, Little Richard celebrated his 85th birthday. To celebrate, Macon proclaimed December 5 "Little Richard Day." And during a meeting held over Zoom, a board member read a proclamation from Macon Mayor Robert Reichert stating December 5 will be known as "Little Richard Penniman Day."

Students use proportional reasoning to solve problems building on prior work in measurement, multiplication and division. Students will use tape diagrams, tables of equivalent ratios, double number line diagrams, and equations. They will also plot pairs of values generated from a ratio or rate on the coordinate plane.
Students continue to build fluency with adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing multi-digit decimal numbers using the standard algorithm. Students will extend their understanding of dividing fractions by dividing fractions by fractions. They will be asked to create and solve fraction division word problems.
Students will understand rational numbers as points on the number line and extend previous understanding of numbers to include negative numbers. The number line is used to order numbers and understand the absolute value of a number. Students will solve real-world and mathematical problems in all four quadrants.
This module begins a formal study of algebraic expressions and equations. Students will learn equivalent expressions by continuously relating algebraic expressions back to arithmetic and the properties (commutative, distributive, and associative). They will write, interpret, and use expressions and equations to reason and solve a variety of problems.
Students will use what they learned in the previous unit to solve for unknowns in area, surface area, and volume problems. They will find the area of triangles and other twodimensional figures and use formulas to find volumes of rectangular prisms. Negative numbers in coordinates will also be used as they draw lines and polygons in the coordinate plane.
Students will develop an understanding of statistical variability and apply that as they summarize, describe, and display distributions. Measures of center and variability are the main focus.

IRFU records €28m surplus after Newlands Cross site sale
Men's professional rugby delivered 96% of non-exceptional revenues for sports body

The Irish Rugby Football Union (IRFU) made a profit of almost €25 million on the back of the sale of land at Newlands Cross last year.
The site in question was once examined as a possible location for a new stadium for the IRFU and the Football Association of Ireland (FAI). Ultimately, Lansdowne Road was chosen for the project.
The IRFU was paid €27 million for the land by Hibernia Reit.
In its annual report, published on Friday, the IRFU said it received a net surplus of €24,959,748 on disposal of the land. If the land is rezoned in the next 10 years, it will be entitled to an additional payment equating to 44 per cent of the market value of the lands at that date, less what Hibernia Reit has already paid for it.
South Dublin County Council has rejected pleas from Hibernia Reit to rezone the land from agricultural use to allow residential building there, although further talks between the two parties are expected to take place soon.
The sports body saw revenues grow to more than €87.5 million for the year
The IRFU's report shows the surplus on its accounts for the year to end-April 2019 was €28,252,170. That was up from €1,239,569 the year before even when the land sale is stripped out.
The sports body saw revenues grow to more than €87.5 million for the year, an increase of €1.8 million on the previous 12 months.
Provincial teams
Higher revenues from the Pro14 competition, which have been passed on to the provincial teams, along with the sale of additional 10-year tickets and corporate boxes at the Aviva Stadium, account for the increase.
The men's international game now accounts for 81 per cent of all IRFU revenues through ticket sales, hospitality, sponsorship and amortised income. That is likely to be even more stark this year as the team plays in the Rugby World Cup in Japan in September.
With 15 per cent generated by Pro14 and European Professional Club Rugby, the IRFU said 96 per cent of its revenues were attributable to the men's professional game.
It said the net revenues from the professional code were allocated across the entire game. There were increases to domestic game funding, women's rugby, values-based initiatives through the Spirit of Rugby Programme, and the promotion of the game, "particularly on driving attendance to this year's Women's Six Nations games".
IRFU chief executive Philip Browne said the organisation was concerned about the impact of Brexit, which at this stage remains "unknown".
"With the impact of Brexit still unknown, the future for all businesses is uncertain," he said. "We must continue to govern the game in a prudent and responsible manner and, in that respect, we must ensure that the revenues received from the Newlands sale continue to deliver an income that can be spent on our ongoing grassroots programmes."
